Around the pedal area there should not be any foot mats or other
additional floor covering materials:
• In the case of defects on the brake system, a greater pedal travel
may be necessary.
• It should always be possible to depress the clutch and
accelerator pedals fully.
• All pedals must be able to return, unhindered, to their rest
positions.
For these reasons, the only foot mats which may be used are those
which leave the pedal area completely free and which are
prevented from slipping.
